Back, I just needed to cool off a little bit. I know, I know, I'm sorry if I disappointed anyone.

I know they wouldn't be edited or whatever, it was sarcasm. Nothing to be taught.

Not once did I see a "Peter has done this, so I gave him an infraction" come from you—if he's such a naughty little boy as you say, why didn't you?

Perhaps I'm confused, but, him calling Big Zee a dick (or worse) in public view, is not as bad as me throwing some harsh sarcasm your way? He out right called the Owner names or worse, in the public eye... I just threw some sarcasm with analogy your way, regarding how I saw him being handled/dealt with. Regarding moderating him, I had given him an infraction before. But I wasn't sure what all to do with him per se, because at the time, you seemed to be handling him. And I heard you don't like the stuff you're handling, to be messed with. So I backed off, but maybe I shouldn't have.

Regain trust? I don't think trust is the issue here though, it's merely my ranting off at you in the wrong way. I didn't attempt to hack the board, or whatever. And just because I'm openly stating my side of the story, in my own words, doesn't mean that I'm not sincere and not willing to regain anything to be back on staff. It's the fact that I verbalized my thoughts and feelings, in a pissed off manner.

There is no harm having this thread open, and if there comes such a time as the posts in here become an issue then perhaps we will reconsider. That's just a part of moderating discussions which I figured you'd already know by now.

The deleting of threads remark, was sarcasm again, that's all. But there were posts closed and etc before though. And even some by request. I don't need taught anything though, thanks. LOL!

I know. I think after this, I'm done stating anything on the matter though. Everyone knows how much I like TF and want to improve it and etc, and I still feel that way about this place. Sometimes I just need to cool down first, before expressing my concerns, thoughts, and feelings. My apologizes to everyone again.
